A women sees her husband enter a hotel with another woman and then he lies about it. Seeking revenge the woman decides to have a one night stand with a co-worker. She hooks up with the other man and when he leaves his apartment she witnesses her husband killing the other man. The big problem - both the victim and wife are cops and she is assigned to solve the crime. Soon the woman is busy trying to cover up for her husband without damaging her own career. It isn't long before she discovers some awful truths about her lover and her husband. In typical Patterson fashion the story moves rapidly along and there is a continual series of surprises before a stunn ing end. I read it in two days and it is a great end of the season fun read.
